Seeing Double: Couple Wears Matching Outfits Every Day for 35 Years

No need to adjust your glasses. Donald and Nancy
Featherstone, of Fitchburg, Mass., are indeed wearing matching outfits in every
one of these photos, and have been for the past 35 years. It all started when they
began dating and Nancy convinced Donald to loosen up. “When I met Donald, he
had been raised very formally,” Nancy, 60, told ABCNews.com. “He always
wore a suit and tie.” One brutally hot weekend, Nancy suggested he take his tie
off and she’d make him a short-sleeved shirt to wear instead. Over the years, Nancy
started making more clothes for Donald, and with the leftover fabric, she’d
make matching outfits for herself as well. Now, everything down to their
pajamas matches, and it’s been that way since Easter of 1978. “We have an eight
room house with only the two of us in it, and all of the closets are full,”
Nancy joked. (Fun fact: Donald Featherstone, 77, is also well-known for creating
the original pink lawn flamingo in 1957).
